Default first dyno experience

Well I don't know what to think, I think the dyno was reading low on all the cars that were there. Some guys ss car that put down 416 whp on another dyno, put down only 361 on this dyno jet, his car is an lq4 with stock heads and an f13 cam I believe and its an a4. Another guys ls1 put down 346 with just a cam f13 as well. Then this z06 c5 vette with a turbo put down 420, I thought he was all motor, until he said he had a turbo, dont know what turbo. Okay now my car, mods in sig, 98 ls1, FAST 90 90, ARH lts w/catted y, SLP UD pulley, Lingenfelter 853 cncd heads, with a gm ASA CAM, i know its a small cam.

REAR: 323 gears
TRanny: M6

#S 385.48 whp 368.27 torque
AIR FUEL RATIO WAS IN THE 11S AT 5000RPMS

for sure i should have cracked the 400whp, the car feels strong and runs hard, i was running a bit rich. Still need to tune it better. But still how can all these cars be putting down such low #s. NA i was the most powerful, as I expected to be. But not under 400

any inputs?
